IMPROVEMENT IN PERFUME-FOUNTAINS.

Specication forming part of Letters Patent No. 160,7 13, dated March 9, 1875; application led January 29, 1875.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, EMIL BATH, of Hoboken, in the county of Hudson and State ot' New Jersey, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Perfume-Fountains, of which the following is a specification:

This invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, which represents a central section. v

This invention consists in combining, with aperfume-bottle, a double-acting pump, the barrel of which is secured air-tight in the neck of the bottle, and the plunger' of which is provided with a button or linger-piece, by which it can be depressed, while it is subjected to the action ot' a spring which forces the saine up, a suitable suction-pipe being made to extend from the pump-barrel down into the bottle, in such a manner, that by alternately depressing the plunger and then al lowing it to rise by the action ot' its spring, the liquid contained in the bottle is sucked into the barrel, and then forced out in ne jets through a rose-head secured to the plunger.

In the drawing, the letter A designates. a bottle or flagon, in the neck of which is firmly secured a barrel, B, which is bored out to receive the plunger C. From the bottom ofthe barrel B extends the suction-pipe D, and the plunger C is subjected to the action of a spring, c, which has a tendency to force the same up. On the bottom of the barrel is situated the foot-valve b, and the plunger is bored out and provided with a dischargespout, o, the passage to said spout being furnished with a valve, d, which opens outward. The spout is by preference made in the form of la rose-head. On the plunger is formed a button or finger-piece, e, which serves to depress the same against the action of its spring.

When the plunger is irst depressed the footvalve closes, and the air contained in the barrel B is expelled through the valve d and the spout c. As the barrel is released and allowed to follow the action of its spring a, the valve d. closes and a portion of the liquid contained in the bottle is sucked into the barrel, and, if the plunger is then again depressed, the liquid contained in the barrel is expelled in fine jets through the spout. A connecting pin or lug, or other suitable stop, readily suggestive to a mechanic, should operate in connection with the plunger, to prevent it from being ejected out of its seat by the action of the spring.

The valve bis held down on its seat by a weak sprin g, f, which isoontainedin achamberformed in the bottom ofthe barrel. For the purpose ot' forming this chamber a plug, g, is secured in the barrel, and this plug is bored out to allow the liquid to pass up, and it is provided with a recess for the reception of the spring. The object of this spring is to keep the valve closed when the bottle or Hagon is laid down or turned upside down.

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

A peri'ume-buntain composed of a bottle or flagon, A, having secured in its neck a barrel, B, in combination with the plunger C, suctionpipe D, spring a, valves b d, button or fingerpiece e, and spout o, all constructed and operating substantially as shown and described.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 27th day of January, 1875.
